Values & Guiding Principles

Values &
Guiding
Principles

Life is lived equally in the joy and the pain, in our successes and failures,
in our highs and lows,
and in all the in-betweens.

Knowledge is Power &
Should Be Accessible to All

When we gain insight into ourselves and understand why our minds do the things they do, we have the power to stop being bystanders in our own life and start taking action. Too often we think of “experts” as holding hidden information or pulling invisible strings behind the scenes. This can get in the way of building agency, resilience, and confidence.

We Cannot Filter Out the Unwanted Parts of Life...

... but, we can choose how we show up. It's become all too common to passively float through life. We choose to “grin and bear it” rather than feel able or empowered to make change. We “white-knuckle” our way through challenging experiences, cutting ourselves off from the present moment and engagement with our complicated and beautiful lives.

All Change - Even That Which We Want Most - is Scary

We often put ourselves down for not changing our unhelpful thoughts or behaviors. But fear of the unknown is a powerful motivator. Even the best moments in our lives - landing the dream job or partner - introduce fear: Am I good enough? Will I screw this up again? We'll repeat: ALL change is scary. But nobody ever said we had to do it alone.

CVB Living believes that everyone should be an active participant in their own lives and has the potential to develop sustainable skills.

CVB Living offers resources and skills to show up fully in your day-to-day life, in service of the things that matter most to you.

At CVB Living, you will work alongside an empathic, open-minded therapist as you move through the fear and achieve your goals.

We might not be able to filter out the unwanted parts of life,
but with the right support, tools, and knowledge,
we can better show up for our communities and - most importantly - ourselves.
